NRA has 5+ million members. Small group that thinks they deserve to run everything LOL...are you sure you aren't confusing them with the 400,000 member UAW? Or the 1 million member Teamsters? Get the memo from the left guys?! If you really believe in something, don't you dare stand up for it...unless you're a progressive Dem. The Right just wants to control everything and everyone!

notsocialist, aka conservative idiot. Good ole Greta van sus... on her Fox news show debunked it last week. Also see article in The Atlantic. I suggest you and other good Christian conservatives review the 9 commandment. What a bunch of phoneys...........

Before we can successfully do anything with the government paying for healthcare, we need to reduce the size of government and we need to reduce the non-working culture (I don't mean temporarily unemployed persons...I mean persons who absolutely refuse to work).

Obamacare does neither and that will guarantee failure. We will have healthcare resources quagmired in bureaucracy and will not have enough tax revenue to pay for it.

Bug, I'm not necessarily against government funded healthcare but this Obamacare is a train wreck. On one hand, if businesses didn't have to provide healthcare insurance to their employees then that could make them much more competitive in the global market and it would make the USA more attractive for foreign businesses to set up shop here and hire Americans. On the other hand, we know how the government runs things, so it is foreseeable that getting a simple check-up will turn into a colossal pita.

The NRA regularly publishes accounts of armed citizens successfully defending themselves against attacks. They've been doing it for decades. You would know that if your handlers would permit you to read them. Additionally, there is no way to determine how many crimes were never committed because the persons contemplating the crimes determined they were too high risk.

The NRA pretty much IS the gun lobby. Again, they wouldn't be so powerful if it wasn't for all the money everyday Americans send them to defend their rights against the crackpots and wannabe tyrants in government.

"11000 killed /yr in America" isn't a gun problem...its a cultural problem. These people will find a way to kill each other with or without guns.
